Dear readers, are we having fun yet? The holidays are here! We will head to Pensacola for Christmas. Our son will fly in from California. He had the audicity to call his sister to warn us when we arrive not to let “mom” shake the boxes he is having shipped. Like I would! Well maybe I have done so once or twice in the past. So I can’t wait to open my boxes Christmas morning.

Members of the public and On Top of the World Communities are invited to view the On Top of the World Model Railroad Club 3-rail (Lionel-type) model railroad exhibit from Dec. 15-27 in the lobby of the Master the Possibilities Education Center located in Circle Square Commons at 8415 SW 80th St. The exhibit will be open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., except for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Your Cherrywood Veterans Club is planning a food drive to benefit the Ritz House. Around the Holidays many resources are available to the veterans who are transitioning from homelessness to main stream society, but at this time they are in need of our support.

Residents are asked to place food donations in plastic bags by their mail boxes on Oct. 22 between the hours of 9 a.m. and noon. Volunteers from the Veterans Club will come around and collect these gifts and transport them to the men and women at Ritz House.

Swing into spring at our Spring Fling dance party on Saturday. Tickets are just $2 so get to the office and see Geri to sign up. Starting at 7 p.m., Rich Becotte will fire up the music and the festivities will begin. Rich plays a wide variety of tunes from his vast repertoire of music. If you like slow and easy Rich has it and if you like fast and up beat; he plays that too. Whether you are dancing or just listening you’ll enjoy the music.
